The Radio Dept. “Heaven’s on Fire”

The Radio Dept a definite band to watch, from the first time I heard this band I noticed this guys were going to be different, in a good way! “Heaven’s on Fire” I love the begining of this song, it gives it a different mood, it totally builds up as seconds pass, and when you least expect it the song moves in a very different direction a more mellow one, and suddenly it goes up again. It’s a roller coaster of emotions!

Best of ..10′ so far!

This ia a list for everyone out there who is stuck or tired of listening to the 09′ albums, like Fever Ray, Gorilla Manor, Bittre Orca, XX, Phoenix, etc… (not a complaint, it was a great year with awesome music including all of the ones mentioned)  but there is nothing wrong with wanting to reach farther and listening to new music. This might help you find an artist which you may come to love or simply help you not fall behind on this years music, so when the best of 2010 lists come out in places like Pitchfork you wont be completely clueless.

Music: a Passion, Erik Satie!

Music is not just about listening or dancing to the beat, it’s so much more than that, it’s about understanding, feeling, capturing the image that is coming across, as beautiful notes and voices. It’s about having a momentary escape from our reality, yet sometimes it’s not about running away from our feelings or problems, instead it’s about really analyzing and going deeper into our emotions and thoughts, understanding the meaning of life. You could say music helps us express ourselves when words fail to do so.
